The Honolulu Marathon. The third-largest marathon in the world. Over 30,000 runners in a single year. Over $100,000 paid to leading racers.
But it didn't start out that way.
In The Honolulu... More > Marathon, Mark Hazard Osmun, recounts the origins of this amazing event and the motivations of the people who made it happen.
From recording the promotional showmanship of the zealous Dr. Jack Scaff, to kidnapping world-class runners, to running in the race itself, Osmun became the principal chronicler of the marathon--an event that became the bellwether for the nation's subsequent "Running Boom."
Originally published in 1979, and told in a fast-paced, engaging, and sometimes irreverent style, The Honolulu Marathon placed the event on the international stage and now gives us perspective on the colossus it has become.
Now with new material, an author preface, and an annually updated Race Statistics section, The Honolulu Marathon is a must-read for everyone who has--or will--run the race.< Less
